Rent NowCanon RF 28mm f/2.8 STM Lens
The Canon RF 28mm f/2.8 STM is an exceptionally sleek, “pancake-style” prime lens designed for ultimate portability without sacrificing image quality. As one of the smallest and lightest options in the RF lineup, this classic wide-angle lens is the perfect companion for street photography, travel, and vlogging. Its unobtrusive profile makes it an ideal “everyday” lens, allowing you to capture spontaneous moments with a natural perspective and impressive clarity.
Ultra-Compact “Pancake” Design
Peak Portability: Measuring just a fraction of an inch in length and weighing next to nothing, this lens allows your EOS R-series camera to remain as compact as possible—perfect for fitting into a jacket pocket or small bag.
Versatile Wide-Angle Field of View: The 28mm focal length offers an expansive view for landscapes and architecture while remaining tight enough for environmental portraits. On APS-C sensor cameras, it provides a highly useful 45mm equivalent “normal” field of view.
Bright f/2.8 Aperture: The fast maximum aperture excels in low-light situations and provides greater control over depth of field, allowing for beautiful subject separation despite the lens’s tiny size.
Sophisticated Optics & Precision Focus
Advanced Optical Layout: Featuring three aspherical elements, this lens effectively suppresses distortion and aberrations to deliver high-resolution images from edge to edge.
Super Spectra Coating: Canon’s specialized coating is applied to minimize ghosting and flare, ensuring your photos maintain high contrast and neutral color balance even in backlit conditions.
Smooth Gear-Type STM Motor: The stepping motor (STM) provides fast and accurate autofocus for stills while maintaining the smooth, near-silent transitions required for professional-looking video.
Creative Close-Ups: With a minimum focusing distance of just 9.1″, you can capture unique close-up perspectives with a 0.17x magnification, blending detailed subjects with a wide-angle background.
Intuitive Handling & Control
Customizable Control Ring: Like all RF lenses, this prime features an integrated control ring that can be programmed to adjust ISO, aperture, shutter speed, or exposure compensation directly from the lens.
7-Blade Diaphragm: The aperture design utilizes seven rounded blades to create a soft, pleasing bokeh quality in out-of-focus areas.
Optional EW-55 Lens Hood: For even greater flare protection and front-element safety, the lens is compatible with the threaded EW-55 hood (sold separately).
